This year's postgraduate Research Conference was held on 14 April 2015 in the John McIntyre Centre, Pollock Halls of Residence. The event celebrated research within the School of Engineering showcasing the work being done by our students across the six Research Institutes.

Dr Adam Stokes is a specialist in soft robotics and spent some time speaking with Sky News about the future this technology. Soft robotics are changing the way that we interact with robots as they are created from pliable material which has strength, but won't cause damage.
